Edit (10/02/13): It appears that the bouquets will still only drop from the Cataclysm bosses, but I'll update this post if this changes. Please don't hit the Out of Date button. Happy Valentine's! <3
Edit (11/02/14): Looks like it hasn't changed this year either.This post is for the 2012 (and now
20132014!) Love is in the Air festival:►►Direct links to the items, 'cause there are none on this page: [item=22206] + [item=44731]◄◄
The bouquets will only drop from a few bosses, who are situated in Cataclysm dungeons. These bosses are Drahga Shadowburner in Grim Batol (third boss); Corla, Herald of Twilight in Blackrock Caverns (second boss); High Priestess Azil in Stonecore (final boss); Admiral Ripsnarl in Deadmines (fourth boss); and Lord Godfrey in Shadowfang Keep (final boss).
The items will not drop from any other bosses in these instances, nor any bosses in other instances except those mentioned below. The items will drop on both Normal and Heroic modes (though just Heroic mode for Admiral Ripsnarl and Lord Godfrey), and the drop chance is 100% (Guaranteed).
The items may also drop from certain bosses in Hour of Twilight dungeons, however these are not a guaranteed drop chance, unlike the drops in the "standard" dungeons. From the data collected so far, the following bosses can drop the flowers: Queen Azshara in Well of Eternity (second boss); Asira Dawnslayer in Hour of Twilight (second boss); Echo of Sylvanas and Echo of Jaina, in End Time.
This list is not necessarily complete.It should also be mentioned that the items no longer drop from the Wrath of the Lich King dungeons like it has done on previous occasions. The only bosses it will drop from are the ones mentioned above.
Please ignore the statistics of drop chance for these items on Wowhead. The reason it is <~5% is because that is across all of their data for loot dropped, and since nearly all the kills of the bosses are recorded in times other than during this event, by its very nature the percentage drop chance displayed is incorrect.
Hope this clears things up for everyone looking for how to do this achievement in the latest Love is in the Air event.
Good luck to you all!
Oh, and also, it should be noted that all of the bosses that drop the items are female... except Admiral Ripsnarl and Lord Godfrey. Does this mean that Godfrey and Ripsnarl are.. women?

As of Pandaria, if you are level 90 and want to get this achievement while solo, I suggest the following:
1- Right click your toon's picture in the upper left corner of your screen and set your dungeon difficulty to normal 5 player mode.
2- Take a portal to Deepholm (If you are horde, there is a portal here).
3- Once in Deepholm, position yourself on the ground at this location.
4- Spin your toon so you are facing the temple of earth. Mount up on your flying mount and press the space bar to fly straight up, and keep flying straight up until you see the doorway in the temple, and fly straight in. You are now in The Stonecore.
5- To make it quick you should try to avoid a lot of trash. You should be able to avoid aggro'ing the second and third boss. I avoided the 3rd boss by staying to the far left as i slowly walked by him.
6- pwn the final boss in the instance- High Priestess Azil.
7- Loot.
8- Enjoy your achievement!
9- Set your dungeon difficulty back to whatever you want it set for.
10- Sign in to wowhead and uprate this post.
As of 02/10/2013, the bouquet still drops on Azil in the Stonecore, easily soloable by a lvl 90.
